"Start out at that end，"she said，"Just go along the line and choose what you want．At the other end they'll tell you how much you have to pay"
"I soon learned that's how everything works in America，"the grandfather told my friend later，"Life's a cafeteria here．You can get anything you want as long as you want to pay the price．You can even get success，but you'll never get it if you wait for someone to brin it to you．You have to get up and get it yourself．"

7．Wealth starts with a goal and saving a dollar at a time．Call it the piggy bank strategy（策略）．There are lessons in that time-honored coin-saving container．
Any huge task seems easier when reduced to baby steps．If you wished to climb a 12，000-foot mountain，and could do it a day at a time，you would only have to climb 33 feet daily to reach the top in a year．If you want to take a really nice trip in 10 years for a special occasion，to collect the 15，000cost，youhavetosave3.93 a day．If you drop that into a piggy bank and then once a year put $1，434 in a savings account at 1% interest rate after-tax，you will have your trip money．
When I was a child，my parents gave me a piggy bank to teach me that，if I wanted something，I should save money to buy it．We associate piggy banks with children，but in many countries，the little containers are also popular with adults．Europeans see a piggy bank as a sign of good fortune and wealth．Around the world，many believe a gift of a piggy bank on New Year's Day brings good luck and financial success．Ah，but you have to put something in it．
Why is a pig used as a symbol of saving？Why not an elephant bank，which is bigger and holds more coins？In the Middle Ages，before modern banking and credit instruments，people saved money at home，a few coins at a time dropped into a jar or dish．Potters（制陶工） made these inexpensive containers from an orange-colored clay（黏土） called"pygg，"and folks saved coins in pygg jars．The Middle English word for pig was"pigge"．While the Saxons pronounced pygg，referring to the clay，as"pug"，eventually the two words changed into the same pronunciation，sounding the"i"as in pig or piggy．As the word became less associated with the orange clay and more with the animal，a clever potter fashioned a pygg jar in the shape of a pig，delighting children and adults．The piggy bank was born．
Originally you had to break the bank to get to the money，bringing in a sense of seriousness into savings．While piggy banks teach children the wisdom of saving，adults often need to relearn childhood lessons．Think about the things in life that require large amounts of money---college education，weddings，cars，medical care，starting a business，buying a home，and fun stuff like great trips．So when you have money，take off the top 10%，put it aside，save and invest wisely．

21．What is the piggy bank strategy？D
A．Paying 1% income tax at a time．
B．Setting a goal before making a travel plan．
C．Aiming high even when doing small things．
D．Putting aside a little money regularly for future use．
22．Why did the writer's parents give him a piggy bank as a gift？C
A．To delight him with the latest fashion．
B．To encourage him to climb mountains．
C．To help him form the habit of saving．
D．To teach him English pronunciation．
23．What does the underlined word"something"（Paragraph 3）most probably refer to？A
A．Money
B．Gifts
C．Financial success
D．Good luck

5．In the past，going to a piano teacher was the most popular way to learn how to play the piano．You could get one-to-one teaching and have the opportunity to learn as much as the teacher knew．If you didn't have private lessons，you could still learn the piano，but you would have to teach yourself．This was easy for some，but very difficult for most．However，with technology developing today，there is at last another way that you can take piano lessons．You can take an online course．
An online course is much cheaper than a private lesson．If a private lesson costs 30-40 dollars per week，just think about how quickly that adds up．You can take a whole online course in piano for just a fraction（小部分） of the money that you would spend on weeks of private lessons．Also，private lessons are usually only one hour per week．So you would have to wait for your next lesson to continue your learning．However，online piano courses are quite different．
With an online piano course，you can work at your own pace．You can also take as many lessons per week as you want，or go back and listen to your last lesson if you have forgotten anything．Most adults who want to learn how to play the piano enjoy being able to go back and listen to the lessons again．
Of course if you need someone to sit beside you and offer you immediate feedback（反馈） as you are playing，you might not get that from an oline piano course．However，the lessons online can be viewed（观看） at any time，or as often as you'd like，which means that you can get your own type of feedback from an online piano course．

3．Nearly every driver has experienced that feeling of great tiredness，where it becomes almost impossible to stay awake at the wheel.14-year-old Katherine Wu is too young to have experienced this situation firsthand．However，she noticed how difficult it was for her dad to remain awake while driving back from their family vacations in Florida to their home in Maryland．Her mom had to talk to her dad all the way．
"So I created a tool that can be used instead of my mum talking to my dad to make sure he stays awake and is safe，"she says．
Her invention，"Drivers'Companion"，can notice driver sleepiness and warn the driver if he or she is too tired to be on the road．
The user wears a headset，which sends information about the driver's brain waves to a tiny computer．The computer can be placed in front of the driver．The system then gives warnings，if needed．As the driver becomes sleepier，red color will be shown to warn him or her．The driver will also hear messages warning him to get off the road．The machine can say，"You're tired．Please take a break．"
After sending her invention to the 2016Discovery Education 3M Young Scientist Challenge，Wu was chosen as a finalist and was able to work with Dr．Jess Miller，who is a product development specialist．
"He helped me understand how important it is to make sure that my invention worked for the people who were using it and that it was user-friendly，"Wu says．
As a young scientist，Wu has some advice for other students of her age：I would like to tell them that they should choose something they're interested in．So they will be willing to spend more time on it and enjoy working on it more．Also，when there's difficulty，they should just continue working hard because they'll get over it"
